2017 Emmys: Best (and worst) dressed stars on the red carpet

Admit it, the real reason you watched the Emmys every year is for the red carpet. Who among the stars that turned out for the 69th annual Emmy Awards on Sept. 17 topped our list of best dressed and who found themselves at the bottom of the dirty clothes hamper?

Some of the Emmy nominees were winners when it came to their fashions while others were not so fortunate. And for every ingenue who looked drop-dead gorgeous in her designer frock, there was another who was a fashion flop. Likewise, some of Hollywood’s leading men looked like runway models while others suffered crash landings.

Did your favorite frocks and fellows make the cut? Click through our gallery above to see the best and worst dressed at the 2017 Emmys, which were held at the Microsoft Theatre in downtown Los Angeles and hosted for the first time by Stephen Colbert.

You may be surprised to see who turned up in what. While there were plenty of pretty formal dresses, there were lots of ladies in cocktail length outfits. We saw a jumpsuit or two and even someone in white tie and tails.
